โฆ Synopsis
Chcmicaf nnd mass-sppcctromctric analysts have estabijshed the presence of sulfur trioxidt in gases sampled from fuel-rich propane-air flames containing r;uIfur. This sulfur triox;de was found to bc independent of the source of sulfur. and its canccntrarian profile correlates welf wirh the cktilattd sdfur monoxide equihbrium profile and is related to the internal surface area of the tip of the uncooled quartz microprobe used to sample the flame gases. It is suggested that interactions bctwecn hydroxyI radicals and suMur monoxide at the quartz microprobe may be the source of the sulfur trioxide.

A novel method involving direct sampling of natural flame ions into a mass spectrometer has been used to measure the concentrations of HCN, NH3 and NO in atmospheric-pressure flames. It is found that HCN is formed from N~ in the reaction zone of rich hydrocarbon flames and is subsequently completely
Experimental data are presented on the formation on NO, N20 , NH3, and HCN from an oil spray flame together with the effect of staging the combustion air on the in-time concentrations of these species. By staging up to 40% of the combustion air a 45 % reduction in the emission of NO was achieved for
Concentrations of he combustion products, especially carbon monoxide and nitric oxide, from a propane-air premixed flat burner flame were measured along the gas stream beyond the flame, and the results were examined in conjunction with chemical-kinetic calculations. It was concluded that the formati
